Books I Read in 2009
2 hours ago ago from Work Product
In the spirit of year-end lists, and for my own future reference, here are the books I read for the first time this year. Most of them, anyway I didn't keep a running list and my memory is imperfect. Also: Just primary literature, no scholarship (too many, too complicated, too fragmented). John Barth, Giles Goat-Boy Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves Junot D az, Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao Dave Eggers, What Is the What? Jonathan ...

It feels kind of odd doing a list post. It's not usually my bag, but it's refreshing. A few days ago, as I unpacked a box of books I mailed to my Parents, I came across my marketing library. I ran to my computer and immediately pumped this article out. It's that important. Oh, and I guess today there is some kind of broo-ha-ha. A big Holiday Eve or something? So that means not many people will read this blog today. That's a good time to ...

That is, when I wasn't reading school stories for the thesis. In no particular order: Tender Morsels by Margo Lanagan .

It's that time of year again. Time to revisit The List . As I read my 40 before 40 list this year it occured to me that some of my desires of things to do have changed. Like reading the classics, for example. Sure, I'd still like to read them, but now that I'm homeschooling, I'd kinda like to read them along with my kids. And I don't think they will be ready for them in the next 2 years. Oh, and how about learning to thread my sewing ...
